Dust Right® 4'' Tool Ports

Overview

One end connects tightly to any tool with a 4" dust port, while the other fits perfectly into theDust Right® Handle (which connects to 4" hose and, ultimately, your dust collector), allowing you to move dust collection from tool to tool like never before! The Ports feature a flexible rubber boot on one side that guarantees a tight connection and allows for slight variations in the size of the tool's dust port. Includes two ports and two metal hose clamps. The Dust Right® Tool Ports are designed to work with the Dust Right® handle, which is available either individually or in one of our Dust Right® Packages (sold separately). To connect the handle to smaller 2-1/2" ports, use a Tool Port in conjunction with our Hose Adapter (#20871, sold separately).

BEST ANSWER:I need just one, too. The packaging is aggravating. Most everything else is sold "one at a time."

I'm done buying all my major tools for a long time to follow - don't need an extra port adapter laying around in a box I'll forget about. Instead of buying two more ports, I'll just transfer a port from whichever one of four other port locations I don't think I'll be using for a given project.

This works very well, but its a shame that they did't just make Dust Right handle to fit a standard 4&quot; port.Editor's note: We have to consider tool ports on woodworking machines. As much as we'd like them to be, the fact is they are NOT standard in size. There are slight variations in size from manufacturer to manufacturer and tool to tool. Note that our Dust Right Tool Ports are not an all plastic mold. They are designed specifically with a rubber boot as an integral part of them, which gives the flex needed to fit the variations of port sizing manufacturers produce. By offering the Dust Right Tool Ports we are supplying a way to bring the non-uniform sizing of machine ports to a uniform size so that one can easily switch from machine to machine by using the Dust Right Handle.

The whole series of Rockler Dust-Right products seem to be very high quality and well made. More importantly, everything mates well with the appropriate products within the Dust-Right system. I no longer am trying to make do with cutting and taping fittings that almost fit. I have thrown it all out and gone to the Dust-Right system. Managing dust is now much more effective and fun!

This adapter works just fine. I bought two of them, one for my 4" dust port on my Shop Fox table saw, and one for the port on my Powermatic Jointer. Definitely a recommended item for the dust right and the hose that goes with it.

I spent a lot of money on 4" dust collection hoses of different types as well as quick disconnects before I discovered Rockler's Dust Right system. I have a small shop and keep my power tools long the perimeter, pulling my table saw, jointer, planer and router table to the center when needed. My dust collection system is against one wall in the middle of the shop. By keeping a clear path to the center of the room (meaning the center 6' X 25' long section of a 15' X 25' shop), I simply remove the hose handle from it's keeper (also Rockler), attach it to the tool, hit my remote control for the collector, and turn on the tool. The seal on the Dust Right connections that go with this handle maintain an excellent seal with no leakage. (I have several connectors including straight 4" and right angle elbow types.

Add this to the Dust Right hoses that collapse to 1/7' of their length and it's a great space saver combination.

The 4" Dust Right system really does make for a convenient small shop dust collection setup, and this port is one of the key components. I bought the kit, but needed one more port for my joiner. So with a small portable Grizzly dust collector, and the 21 ft. collapsible Dust Right port, I can easily service my table saw, band saw, joiner, and planer in a 500 sq.ft. shop. This is actually more convenient to use than the fixed system I had in my last shop.

The Dust Right tool ports along with the Dust Right hose are just the right combination for a small shop. They enable you to quickly move dust collection from machine to machine without actually moving your dust collector. The tool ports stay put when connected, but are easy to disconnect too. The whole setup is cheaper than running fixed ductwork, plus it allows for flexibility in your shop layout. This is especially nice when you have a lot of tools on casters and mobile bases and move them around often to accommodate different types of projects.

The flexibility and versatility of these tool connectors are worth every bit of the price paid. Wick, easy to connect and functional. The one 28'x 4" flex-hose allows me to reach every machine in my 30' x 32' shop saving me hundreds of dollars that would have been needed for a hard pipe duct system.

Well designed. Sturdy enough that it won't break the 2nd or 3rd time that it is used. Great adaptor for making the rest of the dust collection system universal in application. I will get another set int he near future to adapt more of the equipment in my shop to the easiest system to use.

The new Dust Right system is far better than the old one in which things often did not fit together, and esasily fell apart in use. I just hope replacement rubber parts will be available in a few years when the original rubber gets brittle and cracks.

I've bought the Dust Right Handle, Hose and 4 of the Tool Ports. I put them on my jointer, planner and bandsaw and move the hose from machine to machine in seconds. Their great and fit all the machine's ports very securely. Good product.

Along with the rest of the Dust Right family of products, this little gem is well worth the price of admission. Unfortunately, there is just no such thing as a &quot;standard four inch port&quot;. My band saw's cast iron port is too big for most fittings, my table saw's plasic port is too small...and on and on it goes. The rubber end of this port easily adapts to any tool port, and the dust right handle engages and disengages effortlessly. Well done, Rockler.

I have a Delta dust collector and have never found any fitting that would go over the plastic wye 4&quot; openings,finally something that makes it easy. Have ordered more of these plus the dust right handles to make hookups easy. As one reviewer said no more duct tape etc.. Great dust collection items from Rockler.

Dust Right 4'' Tool Ports, I have added these to every piece of equipment I have including the 2 1/2 version of this model. Add a Dust Right handle and you free to swap to any machine, sweep the floor or whatever you need from your dust collection system. Dust Right 4'' Tool Ports work awesome are easy to use!

The DustRight parts have been a great addition on putting my 5 drop system into a very effective system. Their are multiple accessories that tie the system together in keeping the airborne dust to a minimum.... if your a part-time / hobbyist woodworker confined to your garage or shop, highly recommend getting your tools hooked up to a system for trapping as much dust as possible... I see it as a smart investment for avoiding long term issues breathing dust over a long period of time...

The greatest thing around! No matter who you purchase machines from the dust port is not a standard 4&quot;, even from the same manufacturer. These dust ports fixes that problem and makes life easier. Rockler is the &quot;Go To&quot; company for your dust collection system.

Like many I have a small shop so dust collection is moved from machine to machine. I grew tired of trying to slide the flex hose over the 4&quot; plastic ports at times it's very frustrating. I switched to these and the dust right handle and now it's quick and easy. Highly recommended.

Product works as advertised. I now flawlessly move the dust right handle from a Jet to a Delta to Grizzly machine and now their dust ports are universal and fit snug. The included hose clamps are easy to operate and quick to install. A very good product and inexpensive as well.

The Dust Right System is amazing! I love the ability to switch between tools, and even clean my shop with the different tools and accesories offered. The expandable hose allows me to reach every tool in my shop without running dedicated ducting all over my shop! Just slip the handle right on the port you have attatched to your machine, and your ready to go!

The Dust Right&#174; system is a Godsend for my shop dust collection issues. Despite having a centralized cyclone dust collector, there are many areas in my basement workshop where running duct work was just not possible (house is circa 1917) so temporary 4" flex hose is the only solution. With the Dust Right&#174; Tool Ports on my table saw, jointer and planer it is just that much easier to connect then disconnect those tools as needed. I would recommend these and the other Dust Right&#174; components in a heartbeat.

The port works exactly as I had hoped: perfectly. I have a Supermax drum sander with a port that was about 1/4" less than the fitting on my Delta dust collection unit. This port made a perfect seal on the sander as well as being a perfect fit on the vacuum side. Now, if there was only a port that would connect my Grizzly belt/disc sander to my shop vac I would be even happier.

I have used these for several years. Mine have held up well to moderate use. Main maintenance has been to retighten the connections about once a year. Product has been straightforward and simple to use.

The Dust Right system keeps my shop clean without much effort. Nice long hoses and easy connections. I have eliminated most of the blast gates in favor of these tool ports. I just stick the Dust Right hose on the tool port for the tool I'm using. I have 8 of these tool ports in use in my shop along with 3 Dust Right hoses, one for each of my dust collectors. Love the Dust Right system.
